Jump map from Travellermap.com

Lansote is an agricultural, nonindustrial world still lacking adequate means to expand its economy.

• As an agricultural world, this world is a near-ideal environment for producing quality foodstuffs of plant, animal, and other forms. Quality foodstuffs are a major export commodity for this world.
• It requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. Having to import most manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
• This is a "low technology" world with technology competencies well below technology standards for Charted Space.
• It is a member of the Rimward Federation in the Demon's Eye Subsector of Far Home Sector, which is part of the Distant Fringe.

Astrography and Planetology

This star system is detailed using the Fringian Variant System Description.

• The Lansote system is a part of the Pel Avena Cluster.

System Data

Karvor-Lansote System

The primary is Karvor, an ordinary yellow main sequence star. It has a luminosity of 0.52 Sols, a mass of 0.871 Sols, and a diameter of 1.264 million km. The inner system consists of (I) a trace atmosphere inner world, and (II) a corrosive atmosphere inferno world. (III-I) an exotic atmosphere stormworld, and (III-II) Lansote, designated the mainworld, have a shared orbit within the habitable zone. Orbital positions (IV) through (VIII) are unavailable due to the presence of the companion star. (IX) a ringed large gas giant, and (X) a sparse icy planetoid belt form the outer system.

Jorikov Subsystem

The companion is Jorikov, a dim red subdwarf star that orbits Karvor at a mean distance of 2.84 AU (orbital position (VI), 424.9 million km) and an orbital period of 5 years 47 days. It has a luminosity of 0.00152 Sols, a mass of 0.093 Sols, and a diameter of 127,000 km. (I) a trace atmosphere worldlet, (II) a small gas giant, and (III) a small ice giant form the outer system. Many of the worlds retain satellites.

Mainworld Data

(III-II) Lansote

(III-II) Lansote is designated the mainworld. It orbits Karvor at a mean distance of 0.83 AU (124.2 million km), the outer of two worlds that orbit within the habitable zone. It has an orbital period of 295 days 22 hours and a rotation period of 16.5 hours. The axial tilt is 17 degrees. Lansote has a diameter of 9,923 km, a density of 4.31 g/cm³, and a surface gravity of 0.61 G. The world is largely geologically inert. Its atmosphere is rated as Thin, Tainted, with a mean surface pressure of 0.58 bar and a composition of 83% nitrogen (N₂), 16% oxygen (O₂), and 1% argon (Ar), water vapor (H₂O), carbon dioxide (CO₂), neon (Ne) and other trace gases. The atmospheric taint is caused by both the low percentage of atmospheric oxygen and trace airborne contaminants of organic origin that produce a psychological response in humans, inducing symptoms of depression and anxiety. Approximately 64% of the surface is covered in oceans of liquid water: average tidal ranges exceed 0.4m. Mean surface temperature: -4°C. The atmosphere is active and moderate weather systems driven by the star and the oceans drive across the globe. The climate is seasonal.

Mainworld Geography and Topography

Total surface area: 309 million km², Water surface area: 198 million km², Land surface area: 111 million km².

Native Lifeforms

Despite the relatively marginal conditions Lansote has native life, entirely consisting of extremophile single-celled cyanobacteria-equivalents that can be found in any ecological niche that provides energy, moisture and shelter. Their metabolic functions drive the process of atmospheric renewal.

History & Background (Dossier)

No information yet available.

World starport

Lansote has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which includes amenities including unrefined fuel for starships, some brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing maintenance and other kinds of repair. Ports of this classification generally have only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.

World technology level

Lansote possesses a Technology Level of TL–5.

• Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Telephone, radio, and television.
• Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Electricity, hydrocarbon internal combustion, and the most fundamental atomic energy.
• Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
  • Land: Ground cars or automobiles and tracked vehicles.
  • Water: Large ships and submersibles with steel hulls.
  • Air: Early aircraft including seaplanes and very early unmanned rockets.

World government

Lansote is governed by a Civil Service Bureaucracy. The leadership of the government is another form (democracy, dictatorship, oligarchy), but the bureaucracy leadership influences policy. The government leadership may select the bureaucracy leadership, but not its membership. Usually the governmental leadership is divided, or incapable of setting policy and the bureaucracy provides a stabilizing influence. The bureaucracy may be the full government bureaucracy or a section with limited jurisdiction but considerable influence like the military.
